the airbag deactivation system is different in the 987 models from that used previously in the 986 models. Thus, any seat will work once the airbag is off (in the case of the 05 models, its the key system and in the 06 models it's an automatic weight sensor).
thus, you may be right, that since the 986 models use some kind of bar and latch system, you may be required to buy porsche's seat. however, since britax makes the seat for porsche, one may be wise to contact britax directly to see about buying a seat from them equipped to work in a 986 - without the porsche logo and dealer markup, it would probably amount to some nice savings!
